"For those who did not get elected this time, there's plenty for them to do," Pryor said.

Patrick C. Toomey '03, who was elected chair of the fellows committee, said he found the elections almost too open.

"I found it ironic that of the 13 positions, seven were uncontested in an election that was supposed to be the epitome of democracy at the IOP," he said.

Also elected Tuesday were Heather A. Woodruff '03, Theresa M. House '04 and Adam J. Wienner '04. They received the most votes in the respective pools of candidates running for the first-year and sophomore positions on the director's task force.

The remainder of the undergraduate component of the task force will be Eugene Krupitsky '02 and Francisco J. Flores '02, the only juniors who had ran for the positions.

Five other students ran uncontested Tuesday. Shankar Duraiswamy '02 will chair the Harvard Political Union next semester, while M. Beth Kytle '02 will become chair of the internships comittee. Joshua I. Weiner '03 will be chair of the Forum committee and Heather A. Crossner '03 will serve as chair of the community action committee. Sandhya Ramadas '03 will assume directorship of the study groups committee.

Travis F. Batty '02, who ran against McCarthy for president, said that he thought that the election, while rushed, turned out well.
